DRAFT REVIEW: White Lightning
RATING
91

Intense, juicy orange and pithy lemon aromas bolt out of the glass; a dash of coriander adds warm spice. This wit’s noticeably richer than traditional versions, but its creamy body supports the wealth of flavors that would otherwise overrun the taste buds. As soft wheat notes flow back, sweet orange peel and grapefruit carry spicy coriander and white pepper; floral hops layer on the complexity. Despite the busy sip, the flavors stay in sync as a dry, honey-kissed finish caps off the swallow.
